[Verse 1]
Staring at my own reflection
Counting every bruise I’ve earned
Every time I almost gave up
Every single crash and burn
People said I was “too much”
People said I’d never fit
But there’s a fire in my chest now
I’m not listening to it
[Chorus]
Even when it’s difficult
I still believe
There is someone in this world
Who can love me for me
I will keep on trying
Trusting what I can’t yet see
Even when it’s difficult
I still believe in me
[Verse 2]
I’ve been left with half-made promises
Ghosts of faces in my phone
Nights I shouted at the ceiling
“Will I always be alone?”
But I’m learning how to stand up
On the days I hit the floor
Every fall becomes a reason
To come back swinging more
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
I’ve broken down
On bedroom carpets
Hands shaking hard
Heart locked like steel
But I still reach
For open arms
‘Cause I deserve
Something real
[growled backing vocals] I deserve it
[growled backing vocals] I deserve it
[Chorus]
